HR Professionals Lack Basic Data-Survey Reveals A study of HR professionals and chief executives published on 30 May 2018 by NGA Human Resources a top UK payroll firm- found that 94 per cent of CEOs consult with HR before making big business decisions, but HR professionals often fail to gather the appropriate data to influence these conversations.

More than half (52 per cent) of surveyed HR professionals admitted that they did not collect data on retention, while a similar proportion (50 per cent) did not track career progression at their organisation and two in five (43 per cent) were not crunching numbers for diversity and inclusion.

Ed Houghton, senior research adviser at the CIPD, said the reports findings could reflect the difficulty some organisations faced in benchmarking their data. Many HR professionals seek to use data to compare their process and outcomes among competitors, but there are no clear standards of data for many of these measures he said.

Areas like retention can be so context-specific to your organisation that you have to create your own measures, and many HR teams are not yet at the level of capability to do this, or are not investing the time required to design them.

The report also found that around a third of HR professionals were failing to report on absence and attendance (30 per cent), pay changes (39 per cent) and recruitment (39 per cent) in their organisation!
